Megan debunks the blame game...

What should Bush have done:
"Democrats seem unable, or unwilling to grasp, that to the extent that this is a regulatory problem, the seeds were laid under Clinton, not Bush. There simply haven't been any significant financial regulatory changes over the last eight years that we can point to as the culprit; nor does 'stronger enforcement' work as the solution to a crisis when the companies in trouble seem to have been in full compliance with the law."

It's pretty long, but worth reading the WHOLE thing. The inference that Bush could have somehow avoided this financial mess is merely another example of how 1- people think that their (supposed) leaders can make "things better"; 2 - EVERYTHING is George Bush's fault; and 3 - most folks want the government to regulate the hell out of everyone but "me".
